The Granddaughter by Bernhard Schlink
After his wife dies, a widower discovers she once left behind a child in the former East and sets out to find her, only to encounter a granddaughter being raised in a far-right nationalist rural community. Determined to offer the girl a different future, he builds a precarious bond and wrestles with painful moral and legal choices—between love and law, past guilt and present responsibility—while confronting the fractures that still divide families and the country itself.
